Here's some examples of the magic that happens when Pat creates. There's a slew of his artwork around HQ, its incredibly fun to watch him work on one of these from start to finish, it's a really fun process. Enjoy!

Summertime By George
Running every Wednesday from 5-9pm, June 8th-August 31st at Lake George this year is a brand new event to St. Cloud. I'm really pumped about this because they are working very hard to get artists and vendors that are a bit outside of the norm to make this a unique event. There's going to be live music, local food vendors, artisans, demonstrations, etc. You can sign up for as many or as few weeks as you like for only $10 per week. I have a feeling that vendor space is going to fill up fast so you'll want to get on top of this soon, I've already talked to a few interested people that can bring something really great to this event. I really really urge artists of all forms to be a part of this event and help represent our demographic in St. Cloud, we need to embrace these opportunities when they're available to use. Also, this seems like a perfect chance to get some cars and motorcycles out for people to check out outside of the typical car or bike show format. I know we'll for sure have a booth down there...probably even bring some motorcycles and pretty girls with us.
For more information you can email me directly at liveyoungdiefastmn@gmail.com and I can get you started with some information to get a vendor space.

For All Your Inquiring Minds
Below is an explanation of the Live Young Die Fast name that I previously posted at the end of August. I've once again been getting questions from folks about the name and as much as I like telling the story, I figured I'd put it up here as well. The more you know me, the more the name makes sense, this just gives you a general idea. So there you have it.
"The Meaning of Life
Well, no, not really. The meaning of "Live Young Die Fast" actually. Recently, seemingly with the advent of our new shirts, the meaning of the L.Y.D.F. was brought into question by a few people wondering why I switched the words around from the more popular "Live Fast Die Young".
Allow me to break it down for you. When I was pondering names for this blog and what would subsequently become a business venture I went through a ton of different ideas and falling short of what I really wanted to convey until one fateful day...(that sounds so dramatic in my head) I got some stupid email forward from a friend of mine and somewhere in it the phrase "Live Fast Die Young" was used. I kept looking at it and thinking that it sounds kind of cool but really didn't make any sense for me personally. I don't wanna die young, I wanna live to be super old and call kids whipper-snappers and take their baseballs when they land in my yard. Plus, I feel like I've already done quite a bit of fast livin' and frankly, all it got me was a lot of hard learned lessons and hard times. The more I thought about it the more I felt the two words should be switched around. For me it makes perfect sense, I think that "growing up" can really negatively affect a person. I like the idea of always staying young, (cue Peter Pan reference) at least at heart. Of course we all have to grow older, pay bills, go to work, be responsible, yada yada yada, but that's no excuse to lose your inner child. It just seems that kids are happy so often and are so light-hearted and carefree because they're not caught up in the troubles of the world. That's exactly how I intend to live my life (and you can't tell me what to do cuz you're not the boss of me, neener neener neener). As far as the dying fast part, I guess that it just goes along with switching the words around, and not to sound morbid or anything, but I hope that when the grim reaper comes looking for me it comes swiftly.
So there you have it, now quit asking and get your credit cards out and head over to the LYDF store This young livin' and fast dying shit ain't free ya know.
Say hello to your mother for me,
J."

"Panoramic Dream: Sam Pandolfo, the Pan Motor Company and St. Cloud"
This exhibit is happening through February 25th at the Stearns County History Museum! I've seen the movie and it's a really great story and a historic part of our town that I think a lot of people don't know about. So who's going with me??? Ladies???

Civil Disobedience
"It does not keep the country free. It does not settle the West. It does not educate. The character inherent in the American people has done all that has been accomplished; and it would have done somewhat more, if the government had not sometimes got in its way." - Thoreau
